Official Beauty Shopping Topic.

Ahaha so I know a lot about makeup...

That's really cool that its always so cheap. The blush is pretty nice, haven't tried the eyeliner yet

Mhm! They have a few good products, and a few duds. Their brushes are damn good (Jenna had a topic in Product Reviews just for the brushes). Check out their website and their Twitter to learn a little more about them! :]

Last week i bought this Agatha Ruiz De La Prada Lips Vaseline in Cherry (the pink with red spots one).



Not heaven but it works and the tin is cute. I'm definetley going to buy more of these

Basically I suck at life and not being able to control my spending! So here is another batch of haulage!!
It's even more Korres stuff, serioulsy i don't think I posted that long ago with crap I bought but I can't find it anywhere, never mind!! Here's some porn!



Jasmine Shower Gel - £7
Jasmine Body Milk - £9
Quince Body Butter - TKMaxx - £5 from £12
Mastiha Eye Cream - TKMaxx - £5 from £24
Mastiha Face Cream - TKMaxx - £4 from £16
Almond Scrub - TKMaxx - £3 from £9

I got ssoo excited when I saw all this stuff reduced, my local TKMaxx is usually rubbish so I was like eeeeeee! and went a little crazy!

Also vaguely beauty related! I got a new makeup bag which is suppper pretty! It was £64 reduced to £20 in a sample sale.

you know that medicated lip balm feeling? it feels like that but on your whole face ITS GR8

When I was in Whistler on vacation there was a HUGEEE Lush there. I had no money, but they had tons and tons of stuff and I was dying because I had already spent my money.

lmfao ally sucks

Ugh I really do. :C

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the porridge soap, even if it gets everywhere when you use it. My skin always felt silky silky smooth. Do you like it, or was it just me?

no I love it too, and I love the smell too!

It smells delicious! If I could eat it then I would.

I got...

Brush cleaner - MAC
Coppering eyeshadow - MAC
Painterly paint pot - MAC
Tea tree water - Lush
MUFE HD primer in blue - Sephora
Tarte 4-day lash stain - Sephora
Glass nail file - Sephora
OPI nailpolish in High Maintenance - Sephora
Too Faced brow pencil - Sephora

and uhhh I think that's it. also some junk from Clinique last week.. Stay Matte pressed powder, cream liner in black, and some free stuff (moisturizer that gave me cystic acne, lipstick that is amazing, an eyeshadow duo that I haven't tried out... yeah.)

"moisturizer that gave me cystic acne"
Which one was it? Dramatically Different gave me a weird allegic reaction (kind of like hives) that I usually only get to face wipes.

Dramatically Different.. hahah. YUCKKKK


oh! also, I got the Stila precious pearl palette. I forgot that one.

Only one thing but this has changed my life forever:



Behold a highly obscure cheapo brand charcoal mask that people normally wouldn't give a second glance at, but just one use and my blackheads have completely been sucked out of my face. It made my nose pores invisible and for that I think I will marry it.

The best thing is it's only $2.

I love cheapo stuff from overseas! The packaging is always wicked bodacious

IT GOT RID OF ALL YOUR BLACKHEADS? Where did you buy this and where can I get one please?

I am so jealous of you right now.

hey girl hey!
i live in buchans, newfoundland on 44 scott street.
wanna send one of those over this way?

Ally, you are so cute. Haha I got it at this Japanese store which sells everything and everything is only $2. It's the best place ever. If there are Japanese specialty stores around you, perhaps you could try looking around there.

If you guys want some I'll go figure out how to mail stuff overseas and send some over!

I'm sure some girls would be happy to do some swaps with you! I have a few packages I've been meaning to send off...grr!

Omg that packaging is rad - love it!

Yesterday I went to Boots (big UK drug store) and all of the makeup was on 3 for 2 so I got some things from Barry M! I haven't tried any of their stuff before cause basically... it looks shit - the display is always covered in eyeshadow and glitter and looks gross and not something you wanna touch!
But anyways I have a ton of their nail polishes which are good value so I thought I'd try a couple of Dazzle Dusts and then chose a lip paint for free -



on top is "Old Gold" (no24)
on the bottom is "Dark Chocolate" (no97
and the lip paint is "Marshmellow" (no101 of lollipop26 fame)
its only coming up to 2pm here and look at the freakishly long shadows - i miss summer already!

swatches!

Spoiler:

I would be willing to do some exchange or something. Are you looking for anything in particular from Canada? Or, Quebec for that matter? We have real maple syrup!

I'll check some stores in Chinatown or something next time I go, though. There might be some little store that has it.

oh oh oh I went shopping.

Aside from my boring black eyeliner I got -

the lipstick and nail polish in this photo -


the lipstick is boots 17 in showcase and the nail varnish is boots 17 fast finish in baked cherry.

i also got nail varnish in exquisite -

but its different than that colour! its a nice shiny bottle green.

and a glittery eyeliner in circus-y harlequin type colours.
